linked
Linked genes, because they are physically close together on the same chromosome and tend to be inherited together.
Male and female genes combine to determine different traits of the offspring. The dominant gene is another term for the stronger gene.
Recessive
If traits passed on by parents are different, they are said to be heterozygous. This means the individual has two different alleles for a particular gene.
Hello there! Traits controlled by two or more genes are for example skin color and height.
The relationship between two different genes for a trait in genetic inheritance is known as gene interaction. This interaction can result in different patterns of inheritance, such as dominant-recessive or co-dominant traits, which determine how the genes are expressed in an individual.
Two traits in two separate flowers genes will sometimes combine into a different color as long as there is not a dominant set of alleles. There are other variables to consideræ like environment can influence how genes express themselves.
Some traits are determined by recessive genes on the X chromosomes. Many times these are genetic disorders and are called recessive genes.
Multiple alleles are genes that have more than two alleles. An example of this would be blood types, with ABO as three separate alleles.Polygenic traits are traits whose phenotype rely on alleles from different genes. An example of this would be hair type, which relies on genes from different parts of chromosomes.The main difference is that multiple alleles are genes with 3 or more alleles; polygenic traits do not necessarily have more alleles, but they rely on on multiple genes.
If the two different genes include one dominant allele and one recessive allele, which is the heterozygous genotype, the dominant phenotype is expressed. For example, if R represents the red flower allele and r represents the white flower allele, the flowers would be red. If the trait is governed by incomplete dominance, then the heterozygous genotype (Rr) will produce an intermediate phenotype, such as pink.
Homologous Chromosomes.
Traits that typically will only be expressed in offspring if they inherit two copies of the genes for the trait are called Recessive traits. - Nikkkki
